Couple things

A bit surprised at the words I managed to write. I had a heck of a time getting any program to open so I could write today. My laptop was all . . . nope . . . still no . . . we’re not working right now. haha

Grbls.

I determined the other day that it will take 4 months or less to write this book as long as I hit my “at least” 1000 words a day goal. Sooner if I write on the weekends, sooner if I keep doing above 1000. I’m not purposely trying to rush though. 4 months is just fine. There may come days where I do play with this novel during the weekend though. If I’m feeling like it, I will.

I noticed that Amber is acting a lot like Sabrina did in that last year. She wakes up and goes to sleep, wanders the room, and just won’t settle down at night. During the day she sleeps just fine. Come nightfall and she’ll be pacing every few hours, waking me and the rest of the dogs up. She’ll act like she doesn’t even know she should be asleep. I tried to play with her last night before I put her to bed, but she doesn’t hold interest in playing so I settled for getting her to run across the backyard. At least it was some exercise. My lack of sleep brings upon anxiety so I feel like running around screaming for no reason at all until around 5 pm at night. It just doesn’t go over well. Which is why I tell people I sacrifice sleep for nothing. It’s physical issues I suffer from the lack of sleep. My body aches get worse too.

Over the weekend I updated my page for all my books. https://kimberlysueiverson.com/all-books/ I completely lost the notes on the Sylphline Realm – Crown of Ice page that I was working on so I have to redo it. I had such a good synopsis going! haha I’ll be trying to get those pages uploaded and finished this week though. I made one for Anora – https://kimberlysueiverson.com/anora-official-page/ so at least that is done. Because of how the menu acts, I might have to go back to my old theme, or do some alterations on this one. I noticed that for Dark Moon Dynasty Universe, the menu goes waaayyyy over to the edge of the page. That’s not good! On the mobile page it’s fine. Not so much here on the desktop version. I’ll be looking into changing that up. If you notice anything acting up, let me know. 🙂

Sometimes sex or romance - or both - adds to fiction. The question is, when? I (host Rebecca Galardo) and Author/Teacher Holly Lisle discuss when sex and romance adds, when it detracts, and how to write it well. Characters, plot and genre come into play, but so do you. You are the most important part of this. While we describe what sex and romance is to […]

Have you ever read a book that kept surprising you with twists and turns you didn't see coming but once read you couldn't unsee the clues? How about the opposite - guessed the twist from the start? If you aspire to write great mysteries in your novels and avoid at all costs the obvious surprises, this episode could give you the tools to do just th […]
